HMRC ROPS list reappears: some well-known names vanish

HM Revenue & Customs' online list of ROP schemes reappeared sometime after noon today, minus a few well-known names but in terms of numbers of schemes, actually six more than was the case when it was suspended last Friday.

The total number of schemes was given a boost by an additional 55 schemes listed in Australia. Most of these were said to be "self-managed super-funds" as opposed to retail schemes provided by pension scheme providers.

In total there were 932 schemes on the list, up from 926, when the list was suspended.
